Bucks at Spurs: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Bucks 125, Spurs 120

Money line (ML)

The two teams are going in different directions. The Bucks are surging, winning five games in a row and eight of 10, while the Spurs are fading and might play themselves out of the play-in games. They are 13-20 at home this season.

With the most critical part of the season here and the postseason just around the corner, the Bucks are at their best. It is chalky, but take the BUCKS (-350).

Against the spread (ATS)

Despite the wins this season, the Bucks are actually not that great against the spread. They are 31-36 ATS on the season, while the Spurs are 36-30-1 ATS.

Both teams are 3-3 ATS in their last six games.

Take the SPURS +7.5 (-110).

Over/Under (O/U)

The Bucks have the third-highest Over percentage in the league at 57.6%, but they are only 3-6 O/U in their last nine games. They are the highest-scoring team in the league with 119.9 points per game.

The Spurs are 5-3 O/U in their last eight games.

Since the Bucks score and this game will be close, take OVER 233.5 (-110).
